Still have faith in Love. Even if the INT never happened, they still have 9 penalties, 5 drops and a missed FG.

Maybe just maybe Det is that good this year and this is their version of the 1996 Packers where they just roll to a SB victory.
Detroit IS that good. Today though, they don't have to be good. The Pack are making it easy for them ... which brings me to part one of your post -- I haven't bought into Love ... but ... he shouldn't be out there today.

I'd agree, but hard to argue with that 4th and 1, 25 yard TD run...
This is the #1 scoring Offense in the NFL. They’ve scored 17 and we’ve helped them on at least 4 points convert a 4th n 5 FG attempt to 1/2 distance to goal. Thats -4 points to just carry on your side of LOS for the hard count. This could very very easily be 6-13. We have to look at more than pure score here.
6-13 with a full quarter to play is not bad Defense performance. It’s bad offense and poor discipline.


Had we started Malik I think we’d be very much in this one. At worst it would be 6-17 or 9-17 or possibly 13-17 imo with 1 quarter to go.

I noticed Love doesn't have the best timing. He rarely throws on target when WR is in stride.

Put Willis in for the 4th Qtr. Game is out of reach.
I agree, especially when it comes to depth. He rarely hits a receiver in stride vertically and has made me wonder if he's got a depth perception issue.

Been a Lions fan way too long and have seen GB break our hearts many times. This ain’t over. We blew a huge lead in the NFC Championship game last year. Anything can happen.

Love is seriously hindered. Can’t believe they started him. If he’s healthy, I think this is a very different game.

That said, GB games have been some of the best games I’ve been to as far as the fans. Always a great time with them, especially back in the Silverdome days.
I like it when fans from other teams visit the forum without acting like a *******, so kudos to you.
I'd prefer you guys win the Super Bowl this year to the Chiefs (I don't want them to get three in a row).

I'm not going to give them a pass, today was a fail on everyone. This wasn't good day, because we were gashed on the run all day from DETs opening snap.
